Pimento cheese is one of my fave snacks. And, in the South, we love loading up our pimento cheese on celery stalks! Yes, that crunchy with the creamy and cheesey goodness is just the best snack. And, this pineapple jack pimento cheese has all that and more!
Now, this is a new flair for pimento cheese! It's the kind that you can easily make and it will keep for at a week in the refrigerator. So stinkin' simple, all you do is... well, just read the directions below and you'll be amazed!
I like the hint of sweetness from the fresh pineapple tidbits. Sure there's plenty of cheese, but who doesn't just love cheese and fruit. I mean it's like peas and carrots or salt and pepper. Just goes together! Give this creamy dreamy pineapple jack pimento cheese a try. It's a nice change from the traditional pimento cheese! xox ~ally
